Chapter 144: Heavenly Fire Righteousness, Jin Bei Visitor

night.

Around ten o'clock, smoke from the first-floor kitchen drifted through the window into the second-floor study. Lin Bo sniffed gently, judging the stage of transformation of the ingredients' properties.

Cooking is also a form of alchemy. When the aromas fully blended, the Scent of the Marrow chapter added a proficiency check, and Lin Bo rose from the table and went downstairs.

After having his first midnight snack of the night, Lin Bo went outside the lighthouse and headed for the rocky beach at the edge of the cape.

He needed to familiarize himself with the newly made equipment and help digest his food.

The mage stood on the pebble beach washed by the waves.

He gently pressed the wooden box hanging at his waist, raised his hand to form a sword seal, chanted the true name of the fungus, and started the resonance of the second-level word spirit.

A brilliant silver ring suddenly jumped out of the box and hovered in front of him. The true name runes on the leaves of the ring flickered slightly, and dark blue whale fire suddenly seeped out from the pattern, enveloping the ring in scorching flames. The arc of electricity spread and crackled.

As he activated the Fierce Control Technique, the ring vibrated at a high frequency, and magical energy surged out. The blazing whale fire expanded into a chakra, radiating heat waves that scorched the night sea water to a hissing sound.

The metallic mycelium glowed slightly red in the heat, but showed no signs of melting. Lin Bo had been feeding the second-generation strains magical metals over the past few days, primarily sea gray steel and some ore materials dropped from the affix treasure chest.

Today, the gold-eating bacteria form an unknown alloy material with significantly improved heat resistance. Although it is slightly inferior to pure gray steel, it can also withstand the whale fire blessed by the Fierce Control Technique.

Lin Bo maintained a sense of open-mindedness, the primary emotion driving the Fierce Control Technique. He then attempted to push the ring, his mind tightening as if he were falling from the boundless sky into a turbulent river.

The ring flew out, but the shockwaves weakened and the whale fire sphere quickly collapsed.

The Flow Control Technique and the Fierce Control Technique are incompatible, and no matter how many times I try, I always end up failing. This is a pity.

However, in order to fully unleash the power of the Whale Fire Ring, it is necessary to combine these two control techniques.

The mage pondered silently, "Since they can't coexist, why not use the Flow Control Technique to simulate the Fierce Control Technique? High-frequency back-and-forth motion is oscillation."

Lin Bo began to push the whale fire ring, making it move back and forth.

It swung back and forth within a few millimeters of travel, appearing almost motionless, but the lingering whale fire was pulsing.

The trajectory of the circular force was twisted by the flow control technique, forming a short line, and the direction of the force kept switching left and right.

The harder the force is pushed, the faster the direction changes and the higher the vibration frequency.

When casting his name word spirit, Lin Bo has excellent control over his body and mind. He can command his emotions and thus maintain the belief in the control technique for a long time.

The art of controlling the flow lies in being impatient, with the mind as tense as a fully drawn bowstring, and the things he controls are the arrows on the string.

Limbaugh keeps pushing his emotions.

He closed his eyes and immersed himself in the resonant tactile sensation. The vibration transmitted back by the ring made him feel that his body and soul were shaking.

The emotions that continued to brew became more and more turbulent, and the whale fire burning on the ring became more and more intense, but it was still no match for the Fierce Control Technique.

He felt as if he was standing on the tip of a volcano, with millions of tons of hot magma ready to burst forth beneath his feet.

Lin Bo simply continued to command his mind, to be more radical, and to take a further step forward.

Suddenly, the strong emotions pushed by him reached a certain limit, triggering the instinctive reaction of his heart. The taut heartstrings broke, and all the anxiety exploded and dissipated like gunpowder, as if a volcano had erupted, shattering his heart.

After a moment, the restlessness in my mind dissipated, leaving only faint memories lingering.

Lin Bo opened his eyes and saw the whale fire ring floating in front of him, with blazing flames filling the inner ring, like a blue sun.

His attempt failed, and he was unable to successfully simulate it. Instead, he unconsciously transitioned from the Flow Control Technique to the Fierce Control Technique.

But there was a moment when these two arts of control could coexist without conflict. In this moment, there was no thought, no imagination, and the mood turned from impatience to relaxation, in a state of change.

If the two beliefs in control techniques are like two sides of a coin, then Lin Bo just reached the side of the coin.

This transformation process is very similar to the instantaneous burst and convergence when forming seals and casting spells. And the intermediate state is similar to the unintentional state when practicing the "Bound Mind and Thought Movement Method".

Lin Bo felt that he had grasped the key to the parallel control technique.

“Since I can only keep one belief in my heart, I will let the other belief become instinct. I don’t need to control my emotions, but let my emotions control me.”

Lin Bo planned to use the method of focusing his mind to maintain the Liezhi Control Technique. After all, this control technique was very pure and did not require imagination and logical thinking like the Liu and Sheng control techniques.

He would use hand seals to evoke the faith of the fierce control technique, without thinking, and directly immerse himself in the state of focusing his mind. This way, he could concentrate on controlling the flow control technique.

At this time, there was still some mana left, and the Whale Fire Ring contained about 30% to 40% of its magical energy, enough to support him in his attempt.

Lin Bo exhaled softly, extended his left hand, raised his middle finger, wrapped it around his index and ring fingers, and spread his little finger and thumb, the gesture resembling a bursting flame. He formed a flame-shaped seal, propelling his emotions to erupt suddenly, entering a state of boundless control over fire, the whale fire on the ring burning brilliantly.

As he became more proficient in hand seals, he could now easily find the feeling. In the past, he used hand seals to silently speak, but now he used hand seals to silently send out the imperial technique, and there was a difference in the experience.

Maintaining the seal posture, Lin Bo focused his attention on the force pushing the ring.

He did not think about whether he was maintaining his faith in the Lie Zhi Yu technique, because this was the key to practicing the technique by focusing the mind. Do not try to interfere with the unconscious state. Once you are distracted, the unconscious intention will be broken.

Like the ring of the azure sun swirling through the sky, sailors and fishermen alike, aboard ships at night, could see a single blue spark on the shore, dancing near the flickering light of the lighthouse, creating a puzzling spectacle.

Many crew members frowned and murmured, talking about this, but only the people of Stone Tower Town who admired the miracle smiled knowingly.

The flickering blue starlight quickly dimmed.

The ring fell onto the rocky beach, the lingering heat causing the moisture on the pebbles to hiss. The metallic mycelium was completely inactivated, and Lin Bo could no longer control it using the true name of the gold-eating bacteria.

The Whale Fire Ring lacks a cooling method, and the true name of the magic alloy made by the mycelium needs to be discovered.

Lin Bo released the flame seal, feeling exhausted from the depletion of his magical power. He dropped two drops of potion into his eyes and silently checked the information board on the Internet.

[Skill judgment successful, [True Word Control - Fierce] basic proficiency +1]

[Exquisiteness coefficient × 1.8 (ingenuity)]

【Health status coefficient × 1.6 (excellent)】

[Inspiration proficiency +2 (follow the principles of heavenly fire)]

Final calculation result: [Mantra Control - Fierce] proficiency +4.8

[[Mantra Bending - Flow]... Inspiration Mastery +1.5 (I'm on the right path)]

[…[Mantra Bending - Style] Proficiency +4.3]

The sophistication of the Fierce Control Technique has finally been improved. The originality means that the correct and effective practice method is used, and the prompt for inspiration proficiency "Follow the principles of Heavenly Fire" appears for the first time.

Lin Bo thought to himself that he had indeed done the right thing by using the method of focusing his mind to maintain the fierce control technique. This control technique required continuity and stability. The less distracting thoughts were used, the more in line with the true meaning.

After waiting for the Whale Fire Ring to cool down sufficiently, Lin Bo picked it up from the ground.

Back at the lighthouse, he spent some time figuring out the true name of the ring's material, "Magic Mushroom Iron" in the Animist language. This was an alloy formed after the second-generation fungus devoured a variety of magical metals.

Simply chanting the true name of the magic mushroom iron can also control the whale fire ring, just like chanting the true name of water can control most water solutions, and chanting the true name of bones can make the whole body move.

Inserting the Whale Fire Ring into the seed box, reactivating it, and injecting energy took sixteen minutes, which was still quite long.

Lin Bo planned to prepare a few more rings. On the one hand, they could be used as backup weapons. On the other hand, he was now familiar with the trick of multitasking. Maintaining the Fierce Control Technique while controlling two rings was no problem.

As the sky brightens, the dock is crowded with returning night boats, and a new day begins.

The children employed by the newspaper put on hats, carried heavy canvas bags, and ran along the streets, delivering freshly printed morning newspapers to every household.

"Watchman, newspaper!" the boy shouted breathlessly as he ran across the headland and outside the lighthouse yard.

Lin Bo walked out of the kitchen, called the newsboy over, and gave him some herbal pills, a glass of water, and a piece of freshly fried bread with butter.

"Thank you, night watchman. You are so nice." The newsboy liked the lighthouse keeper. He treated the child like a real guest and never gave him any perfunctory treatment.

There was no major news today. The newspapers published gossip contributed by townspeople. The front-page headline was a reprint of the news from the Jinbei City newspaper, which reported that Duke Anche, who had been paralyzed for many years, had miraculously recovered.

The newsboy said that on his way here, he saw many tourists from other places, and they were all asking where the doctor in the town lived.

The story of a mysterious doctor who cured a paralyzed duke has spread throughout Jinbei City. Nobles and wealthy merchants have heard the news and sent people to search for any trace of the hermit doctor.

Lin Bo said goodbye to the newspaper boy and continued with his daily construction plan. The seawater filter in the workshop had not been completed yet, and the MSG production workshop in the cave also had to catch up with the progress. He was really busy.

Some visitors from Jinbei City found the lighthouse in the morning, but the doors and windows were locked, and Lin Bo himself was working in the underground workshop.

They couldn't find the night watchman, so they searched the area and saw an exhaust pipe sticking out of the ground, a weather monitoring station outside the yard, and an air conditioner unit hanging on the wall of the lighthouse.

This place was strange, with a door lock without a cylinder, and unknown machines and facilities. The visitor couldn't help but frown and rub the bulging arrector pili muscles on his arms.

Someone tried to approach the weather monitoring station, but a majestic seagull stood there, scaring the timid visitors away. The brave visitors tried to drive it away, but were pecked on the head by the seagull and fled from the lighthouse with their heads in their hands.

At noon, Lin Bo came out of the workshop and returned to the surface to prepare for lunch. He saw the seagulls guarding the weather monitoring station chasing after several tourists, making loud and crazy noises.
